Hemingway (18)

Hemingway
Christopher Cook Gilmore

This book is based on the 1988 movie . It is a brief overview of Hemingway's life from 1918 when he was first in war as a medic, up until his death. It glosses over a lot and moves quickly mostly centering on his 4 wives, his drinking and boasting, and his involvement in endless wars.
The book is ok, you can tell it was written for TV, as it jumps around a bit.. more like scence that like a book.. but still not bad, I think it captures his life.
